research Comparison of clinical and laboratory characteristics of cases with polycystic ovarian syndrome based on Rotterdam’s criteria and women whose only clinical signs are oligo/anovulation or hirsutism
Women with only irregular periods or excess hair have a better hormone profile than those with full PCOS, but both groups are similar, indicating a need for better PCOS diagnosis methods.
research Animal models of androgen-dependent disorders of the pilosebaceous apparatus
Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.
research More about X‐linked testicular feminization of the mouse as a noninducible (is) mutation of a regulatory locus: 5α‐androstan‐3α‐17ß‐diol as the true inducer of kidney alcohol dehydrogenase and ß‐glucuronidase
A specific metabolite, not a receptor protein, triggers the production of certain kidney enzymes, but this process is disrupted in mice with a mutation causing testicular feminization.
research Circulating androgen regulation by androgen-catabolizing gut bacteria in male mouse gut
Gut bacteria can lower androgen levels in male mice.
research Age-related hair changes in men: Mechanisms and management of alopecia and graying
Men's hair loss is caused by hormones and genes, and can be treated with medication and surgery, while graying is due to aging and has no prevention except dyeing.
research Recent advances in thiasteroids chemistry
New sulfur-containing steroid analogs show promise for more targeted medical treatments.
research New topical antiandrogenic formulations can stimulate hair growth in human bald scalp grafted onto mice
Topical treatments can regrow hair on bald scalps.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
research [Local therapy of androgenetic alopecia with 17 alpha-estradiol. A controlled, randomized double-blind study (author’s transl)].
Hair lotions with 17 alpha-estradiol can reduce hair loss but won't regrow new hair.
research Lansium domesticum—A Fruit with Multi-Benefits: Traditional Uses, Phytochemicals, Nutritional Value, and Bioactivities
Langsat fruit has health benefits like fighting malaria, bacteria, and aging, but its peel is toxic.
research Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Treatment in Postmenopausal Women with Hyperandrogenism of Ovarian Origin
Treatment with a hormone agonist can reduce excess male hormones in postmenopausal women without surgery.
research Finasteride-induced secondary infertility associated with sperm DNA damage
Finasteride use may cause sperm damage and infertility, stopping it can improve sperm health.
research Mechanisms of Action of Dehydroepiandrosterone
DHEA affects various tissues by interacting with multiple receptors and can be converted into sex hormones.
research Assessment of the usefulness of dihydrotestosterone in the diagnostics of patients with androgenetic alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
research Neuroactive gonadal drugs for neuroprotection in male and female models of Parkinson's disease
Some hormone-related drugs may protect brain cells in Parkinson's disease differently in men and women.
research Inhibitory activities of Puerariae Flos against testosterone 5α-reductase and its hair growth promotion activities
Puerariae Flos extract may help treat hair loss by blocking a hair loss-related enzyme and promoting hair growth.
research In vitro bioassays for androgens and their diagnostic applications
In vitro bioassays are better than traditional methods for measuring androgen activity but aren't ready for routine use yet.
research Minoxidil increases 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α-reductase activity of cultured human dermal papilla cells from balding scalp
Minoxidil boosts enzymes that help hair growth.
research Congenital Triangular Alopecia (Brauer Nevus)
Congenital Triangular Alopecia is a rare, non-scarring hair loss that can be surgically treated in females for cosmetic reasons.
research Hair growth effects of oral administration of finasteride, a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, alone and in combination with topical minoxidil in the balding stumptail macaque.
Finasteride and minoxidil together promote hair growth better than either alone.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth in Vivoa
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Hair Regenerative Mechanisms of Red Ginseng Oil and Its Major Components in the Testosterone-Induced Delay of Anagen Entry in C57BL/6 Mice
Red ginseng oil and its components help promote hair regrowth and could treat hair loss.
research Microencapsulated cell tracking
Microencapsulation helps protect and track therapeutic cells, showing promise for treating various diseases, but more work is needed to improve the technology.
research The lack of significant changes in scalp hair follicle density with advancing age
Aging alone barely affects the number of hair follicles, meaning hair loss is minimal without other conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
research Acquired Progressive Kinking of Hair
Acquired Progressive Kinking of Hair is likely an early sign of male pattern baldness.
research Protective Role of Melatonin and Its Metabolites in Skin Aging
Melatonin, a hormone, can help protect skin from aging by reducing stress, inflammation, and damage, and may also help treat hair loss in women.
